Willett Bird

I am the head of FactSet's Portfolio and Quantitative efforts in Asia covering Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia. My responsibilities include the growth and development of FactSet's portfolio and quantitative applications in the region. I joined FactSet in 1997 as a consultant working out of our headquarters in Connecticut before moving to Hong Kong in 2000 and ultimately taking up my current position in 2003. I completed my undergraduate studies at Georgetown University and will be finishing a joint degree MBA from the Northwestern Kellogg School/ and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in June 2010. I also hold the CFA designation.
